SRINAGAR, 1 Feb: People’s Conference president Sajad Gani Lone took a swipe at J&K Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on the heels of Union Budget 2024-25 presented by Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman.
Sajad Lone said the proposed allocation to Jammu and Kashmir in Union Budget is approx. Rs 41,000 Crore which is approximately 1000 crore less than previous year.
He further added that when adjusted with inflation, it gets reduced by another Rs 2000 to 3000 Crore.
Taking to social media site X, Lone said “I think it is time CM sahib asks for the return of those shawls, which he so slavishly gifted and wrapped around the shoulders of top echelons of BJP. I think CM sahib should also revise the cloudless weather commentary that he made in Sonmarg. On a serious note dear CM sahib —- Chief Ministerial duties go much beyond skiing and selfies. It is a serious and a pious business. Do what it takes to deliver. People have voted for a deliverer not a delivery boy.”
